Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>8 minutes 20 seconds.
First, lets determine who many miles per minute each vehicle moves by dividing each speed by 60.
Speeder = 60 / 60 = 1 mile per minute.
Police = 75 / 60 = 1.25 miles per minute.
Other car = 45 / 60 = 0.75 miles per minute.
Since the speeding car moves for 5 minutes before the police start to chase, that means that the speeding car will now be 5 + T miles down the road with T being the time the police has been chasing. The police will be 1.25 T. We're looking for when those two equations equal each other. So
5 + T = 1.25 T
Subtract T from both sides
5 = 0.25T
Divide both sides by 0.25
20 = T
So it will take the police officer 20 minutes to catch up to the speeder. And they will both have traveled a total distance of 25 miles from the point where the speeder passed the police car.
Now we need to figure out how far the law obeying car has moved during those 25 minutes. So
25 * 0.75 = 18.75 miles.
The distance the law obeying car needs to travel to catch up to the police officer then becomes
25 - 18.75 = 6.25 miles.
The number of minutes that the law obeying car needs to travel that distance is
6.25 / 0.75 = 8.333....
Which is 8 minutes 20 seconds.</span>
Answer:
c = -54
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for c:
(7 c)/8 - 3 (c/8 - 7) = -6
Put each term in c/8 - 7 over the common denominator 8: c/8 - 7 = c/8 - 56/8:
(7 c)/8 - 3 c/8 - 56/8 = -6
c/8 - 56/8 = (c - 56)/8:
(7 c)/8 - 3(c - 56)/8 = -6
(7 c)/8 - (3 (c - 56))/8 = (7 c - 3 (c - 56))/8:
(7 c - 3 (c - 56))/8 = -6
-3 (c - 56) = 168 - 3 c:
(7 c + 168 - 3 c)/8 = -6
7 c - 3 c = 4 c:
(4 c + 168)/8 = -6
Multiply both sides of (4 c + 168)/8 = -6 by 8:
(8 (4 c + 168))/8 = -6×8
(8 (4 c + 168))/8 = 8/8×(4 c + 168) = 4 c + 168:
4 c + 168 = -6×8
8 (-6) = -48:
4 c + 168 = -48
Subtract 168 from both sides:
4 c + (168 - 168) = -168 - 48
168 - 168 = 0:
4 c = -168 - 48
-168 - 48 = -216:
4 c = -216
Divide both sides of 4 c = -216 by 4:
(4 c)/4 = (-216)/4
4/4 = 1:
c = (-216)/4
The gcd of -216 and 4 is 4, so (-216)/4 = (4 (-54))/(4×1) = 4/4×-54 = -54:
Answer: c = -54
5 pounds = 80 ounces
Formula: multiply the value in pounds by the conversion factor '16'.
So, 5 pounds = 5 × 16 = 80 ounces.
Answer length=12ft and width=8 feet
Explanation-
P=2W+2L=2/W+L) = 40
2 (W+ L) = 40 Divide both sides by 2
W+L= 20
W=2+L/2
W+L= 20
2+1/2+1= 20
2+1/2+2112= 20
2 + 3 L/ 2 = 20 Subtract 2 to both sides
2+3112-2=20 -2
3 L/ 2 = 18 Multiply both sides by 3
3 L= 36 Divide both sides by 3
P=2L+2W formula for perimeter of a rectangle
40=2x+2[(x/2)+2]....substitute for "P, L, W"
=2x+x+4..............distribute 2 to each term in brackets
3x=36......................subtract 4 from each side, rewrite
∴ x=12.....................divide both sides by 3
∴ L=12 feet .............length is 12 feet
W=(12/2+2)
=6+2
∴ W=8 feet..............width is 8 feet
